"1500 is the very minimum"
So how do you imagine the creamed-off students in the RAF who got sent off to CFS just after getting their wings, with less than 300 hours in their logbooks, to learn to be instructors managed to cope?
I had my command on 4-engined turbo props with 1521 hours in my logbook. I was a training captain (on the aeroplane - we didn't have a simulator) with less than 2000 hours in my logbook.
Mind you, I had quality training.
